Our old friend Harvey Wells has taken
a contract of establishing eighteen differ
ent enterprises in Wellston, embracing
the investment of hundreds of thousands
of dollars in money, and the employment
of hundreds of men. Amony these are
steel-mills, rolling-mills, wire nail mills,
electric lights, street railroads, and other
matters. Good for Harvey. When you

want to come up and rejoice with you.

Sternberger, Edwards & Co., of the
Blue Grass Creamery, sent us last week a
sample of their butter. 1t was splendid
butter, sweet and fresh, of a beautiful
color. If the Creamery keeps up the ex-

the start-and we have no doubt it will

about the Creamery building is kept in
splendid order. and the work is well done.

The w. c. T. U. observed Flower Mis-
sion day on the 9th. A number met at
Mrs. d. d. Dungan's bringing flowers and
literature consisting of tracts, pamphlets
and papers. About seventy boquets were
made and scripture card attached to
each. Before noon several ladies visited
the Jail carrying flowers and literature.
They were well received and held short
service with the prisoners. In the after
noon some ladies, accompanied by Mr..
Rudisill, visited the Infirmary. The in
mates were gathered in one room and ser
vices held. They were much pleased
with the attention shown them and
seemed to appreciate the kindness of the
visitors. Also during the afternoon other
ladies visited some of the sick in town
leaving flowers and messages of cheer
with each. The ladies of this union are
doing much needed work and should
have the assistance of all good people.

ARD: JACKSON, OHIO THURSDAY, JUNE 16, 1887

No matter how much wild nonsense
may be INDUCED in upon the subject OF
roads, there is no denying the fact that
our roads could be made much better
than they are, and with little expense.
In some of the roads great rocks will be
permitted to lie unbroken for years, while
teams Chamber over them, causing more
expense in the wear and tear of vehicles
than it would cost to improve the roads.
Another point: 1t seems to have been
the aim, in many localities, to get the
roads on the hills, if possible. They
should always be on the flat lands, round
ing the hills, if possible. The washing
and gashing of the hills render impassa-
BILE roads that would be comparatively
good on lower land.

THE GOVERNMENT LANDS.

Our system of dealing with the
waste lands of the Government is
not favorable to their occupancy
nor conducive to the settlement and
progress of the country. To lease
at auction for term of years or
sell to the highest bidder in the
came way, gives an advantage to
the rich over the poor, aud retards
the development of our resources.
The land policy Of the country has
at no stage of our history been of a
character to impress one who has
made a study of the question in
other countries, that the Hawaiian
Government has ever had an intelli-
gent comprehension Of the subject.

CRABS AND THEIR BURDENS.

Crabs, which are supposed to shed
their shells every year, do not often
shed them after they have attained
their full size, and the creatures be-
come victims to barnacles and all
sorts of marine growths that fasten
themselves upon the shell. A re-
markable example of this may be
seen in the British Museum, where
has been placed an old crab Of the
edible species, with some half-dozen
oysters of large size fixed to its
back, which load, ever increasing,
the old crab was doomed to carry to
the end of its days. Another
curious specimen preserved is that
of hairy crab, which, though not
larger itself than walnut, is sad
died with sponge as big as mans
fist.

Most Of what little legislation the
statute book contains bearing upon
the question indicates that il was a
question outside the mental grasp
of the legislators. 1t is not sur
prising that men reared in an atmos-
phere Of profit and loss, or brought
up TO bookkeeping or shop-keep-
ing, with minds attuned to dollars
and cents-all Of which have a
direct tendency to cramp the higher
intellectual perceptions-should be
unequal to the task of dealing COM
prehensively and wisely with SUBJ
iect of this particular nature. To
lease or sell the Government lands
to those willing to give most for
them, simply for the purpose of
revenue, seems to have been the
aim, believing that if the Govern
ment could realize IS for an object
which cost nothing, the lease or sale
must represent So clear profit to the
country. A sad blunder, when
land is the commodity realized on,
and when by that transaction it is
shut up from productive uses.
The material wealth of an unoc-
cupied country is deposited in the
sinews of an industrious popula-
ton. The sole value of waste lands
depends upon the successful labor
of those who may be encouraged to
undertake the precarious work of
cultivation and improvement. There
is wide distinction between the
State and the individual. The latter
buys and sells for his own separate
interest; the former has to provide
for the interest of the people at
large.
1t is q vulgar error to suppose
that the Government is q landlord
entitled to dispose of public pro-
perty merely to raise a revenue;
for revenue is, or should be, de-
rived from the profits of success
full people, and not from the res
friction placed upon the initial
effort of laborious industry. Re
venue must flow from the occupa-
ton of the land, and not from the
sale thereof. Every dollar spent in
the purchase of land is so much
deducted from the capital required
to improve the land. The cheaper
the land, the more rapid its settle
ment and cultivation, and the
greater the permanent revenue to
the Government. Put land up at
public auction to be sold to the
highest bidder, and the monied
speculator steps in and buys, to
hold for rise, or to lease to the
poor man at a price profitable TO
the owner. The Government lands
should be sold at a mere nominal
figure, or leased for a long series
of years, solely on the condition of
occupancy and improvement.

WEIGHED IN A BALANCE.

lnlS Is pracIlcal aye. we
judge men and measures by their
effect upon us and our surroundings.
Time was when the learned and
honored of the earth devolted their
time and attentions to theories
which had no practical bearing
whatever upon the affairs of men.
But that age has passed away. He
who would rise in popular favor now
must make himself useful to the
public. Men, measures, and theo-
ries are now weighed in the balance
of utility. 1t is useless TO try to
conceal the fact that the present
Cabinet will be weighed in this ba-
lance in the coming election cam
paign. Will they be found want
ing? Judge by what they have
done.
They have done much to stop the
waste of public money. In what,
and how many, ways, it is not ne
cessary to say. Attention has been
called to the particulars in the Bull
LETIN on former occasions. That
this is a needed and demanded pub
lie service, no one will deny. One
of the loudest complaints against
the late Government was that they
squandered the public funds on rid
iculous follies, while the needs of
the people were neglected. And
this suggests the question how much
has been done in the way of neces-
sary public work since the men now
in power took office. People of
this city, need not be told that an
energetic and intelligent road super
visor has been kept at work putting
the streets into such a condition
that citizens will not have to suffer
the torture of riding over ruts and
holes, and pay for broken carriage
springs, and blush at hearing the
comments of strangers. The other
islands are beginning to see the
effect of the change in substantial
road work. And it must be remem-
bered that they are working with
treasury depleted by incompetence,
extravaganza, and folly, if not by
something great deal worse. How
much the treasury was depleted
when they came into power the peo=
pie generally probably have little
idea. We can assure our readers
that the financial statement hereto
fore. mentioned in these columns will
surprise many of them, who do not
know how rotten affairs have been
at Alliolani Hale. Men of capacity,
honesty, and industry have taken
the place of those lacking in some
of these qualities in a number of
offices. One of the bitter complaints
against the late management of pub
lie affairs, was that favoritism, and
not merit, governed the appointment
of officers. This is another weight
which the Cabinet take into the ba-
lance with them. And the policy
outlined by the Attorney-Gener in
his circular letter to the Police De-
partment must not be forgotten. An
honest effort to increase the efficien-
cy of the civil service by requiring
officials to devote their time and at
tention to their duties, cannot fail
to be a worthy service to the public.
So supporters of the Ministers
need not fear to have them weighed
in this balance. They are not found
wanting.
